Boikov has been hiding from Australian authorities in the consulate since December 2022, the ABC reported. <\/p>\n

He fled to the consulate to avoid arrest after assaulting a pro-Ukraine protester in central Sydney, according to the outlet. <\/p>\n

He was convicted in absentia.<\/p>\n

Freeman has not been seen since late August<\/a>, when he allegedly shot dead two police officers and injured a third. <\/p>\n

The confrontation occurred when officers executed a search warrant at his property in rural Victoria. <\/p>\n

He then fled into the bush with firearms and has since been on the run, News.com.au reported. <\/p>\n

Police have placed a A$1 million ($1.1m) reward for information leading to his arrest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The controversial YouTube host claimed in the video that Filby said Freeman has been a fan of his.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":62952,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[3225,1117,29385,31468,7817,51357,22970,690,7807,7808,42,5420,4748,78,14235,43,1118,51356,51355,8217,17182,8221,1734,40,38,41,39],"class_list":["post-62951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-according","tag-accused","tag-believes","tag-brother","tag-bushland","tag-consulate","tag-cop","tag-dead","tag-dezi","tag-freeman","tag-headlines","tag-hes","tag-hiding","tag-in","tag-killer","tag-news","tag-of","tag-propagandist","tag-provladimir","tag-putin","tag-reportedly","tag-russian","tag-sydney","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=62951"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62951\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/62952"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=62951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=62951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=62951"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
